    Computer Lab
    You will meet once a week in a computer lab. See the scheduled time and location for your section above.

    Discussion
    You will meet in small groups with your TA once a week. As the name implies this period is meant for discussion not another lecture. It is an opportunity for you to ask questions about material covered in a lecture or a homework problem. The TA will not discuss problems that you are supposed to hand-in. Come prepared to ask questions. Quizzes will be given during this period as well. No make-up will be given so be sure to attend every session.

    Homework
    Doing assigned homework is an important part of the learning process. Homework will be assigned on a regular basis. You will be required to submit a set of homework problems about once a week. A subset to be determined by instructor after the homework has been collected will be graded. Late homework will NOT be accepted. If you miss a class it is your responsibility to find out if any assignment was given. The work you submit must be your own.

    Exams
    There will be three hour exams , quizzes and a final exam. No make--up will be given for a missed hourly. If you miss an hour exam due to an illness or an emergency your final exam score will be used in place of the missed test otherwise you will get a zero. In the case of illness a note from a doctor is required. You may not miss more than one hourly exam.

    Tentative dates for hour exams are: Mar 14, Apr 16, May 14
    Any changes will be announced in class at least one week in advance. If you miss a class it is your responsibilty to find out what you missed.

    Final exam date will be announced later.
